WaterLase®

A More Accurate, Less Invasive Tool Than Drills or Scalpels Alone

WaterLase®

The WaterLase® Dental Laser is a versatile laser tool that allows Dr. Israel Trujillo to treat the tissues with a high degree of accuracy and by causing less trauma to the mouth in Merced, CA. The WaterLase® Drill is often used to perform a variety of procedures such as dental implants, cosmetic procedures, and periodontal therapy. Many dentists now use WaterLase® to perform a number of general and cosmetic dentistry procedures with more accuracy.

How Does WaterLase® Work?

The WaterLase® Dental Laser uses a combination of YSGG laser energy and water through a process called HydroPhotonics™. The drill uses water and light energy to break down the tissue but there is no friction like with traditional drills. Less friction means minimal discomfort for the patient and there is no need for anesthesia. Many WaterLase® procedures, including gum surgery, are performed without any anesthesia whatsoever.

Benefits of WaterLase®

Since there is little to no friction or vibrating effects with the WaterLase® procedure, the entire process is much more comfortable and minimally painful compared to traditional procedures. Many WaterLase® procedures are performed without anesthesia and are less abrasive than procedures performed with other types of tools. WaterLase® patients may experience very little inflammation and discomfort after their treatment, and the tool allows Dr. Trujillo to perform the procedure with a high degree of accuracy.
